Isis is such a unique addition to Pittsburgh, let alone Brookline. It has to be one of the only Egyptian restaurants in the city and the quality of food is great. Unfortunately, it looks a little less than it is due to the fact that it is in the former produce store and is plagued with the old awning. Please take this place seriously if you choose to experience some of their food, as they mean business when it comes to their cuisine.
Also, take a moment and talk to the family that is running the business. They are putting everything they have into it and I really admire them.
The food is excellent! I had the tasting menu and sampled a little bit of everything. There wasn't much that i didn't like, and the things that weren't my favorite was solely because it's something I would normally not enjoy, but I was happy to try them anyways. They are open later in the evenings now and also serve brunch, which I will be making a point to try in the very near future. FYI, they are BYOB, too!
